MY NAME "MEHER" MEANS MERCY

 
When I was studying in Deccan College, I had a friend named Ramnath who was fond of reading books about the lives of saints. We were great friends, and one day Ramnath gave me a book to read on the Life of Buddha. While going through it, I came across the passage where Buddha had said that when he comes again in physical body, his name would be Maitreya (Lord of Mercy). I had not gone to Babajan yet. But after reading the passage I thought, or rather spontaneously felt, that I was the same "Mercy" to which Buddha referred.

Thereafter, Upasni Maharaj revealed to me that I was the Avatar. Babajan also told me one day, "O my son, you will make the whole world dance to your tune!" But today, I definitely know that I am That. My name, Meher, means mercy!
